Kelowna, Golden and Kamloops!




Still having fun and having a hard time to believe the grandeur that is British Columbia! We have seen so much of the province in the last few days. In the Okanagan Valley we visited a winery called Mission Hill. There are many wineries in this area and we were told this was a must see. We weren't disappointed. In Kelowna, Véro and I treated ourselves to a treat! A night at the Delta Grand Okanagan! It was a rare night off for the band and we took advantage. Have a look at the last picture, this was the view from our deck!

Our travels are constantly taking us on new trails. We drove through Revelstoke and Glacier National Park. The snow peaked mountains amaze me every time we turn a corner. We played a show in Golden, BC. We were close to the Alberta border there and were even on Alberta time for a day. From the stage I asked the kids to pose for a picture with the dancing bear. They willingly obliged! (see photo) The Kicking Horse Resort is in Golden and the picture included is a view of the ski slopes in the summer weather.

We made it to Kamloops where we played outside in Riverside Park. We got to visit with my good friends Jeff and Carma! A highlight of the trip for sure. Tonight is our first of two nights in Vancouver, we opened the Vancouver Folk Festival tonight, we were the first act on the main stage. It was quite a rush! I'll post some Vancouver pictures next!
